Raw data is exported as CEL files. Analytical software is available for download on the Affymetrix website. Additional help is available through the Bioinformatics Core (Bioinformatics link) on a fee-for-service basis.

3 to 4 weeks, however, timing is dependent on the availability of arrays, which are purchased as needed.

Critical Information

For standard genotyping arrays (SNP 6.0, Axiom) DNA must be of high quality and free of protein, detergents or intercalating dyes (e.g., ethidium bromide). OncoScan arrays are designed to work with DNA recovered from FFPE tissue.

For Axiom arrays, samples must be submitted in AB-gene 96 Square Well Storage plates (ThermoScientific Cat# AB-0932). If samples require Sequencing Core personnel to transfer them to the correct plate, an additional fee will be added to the cost of your project.
